Governor Gavin Newsom recall effort picks up steam

The recall effort against Governor Gavin Newsom continues to gain traction. One of the organizations in charge of the effort saying more than 1.2 signatures have been collected, which potentially brings them closer to the next step. 23ABC's Austin Westfall looks at what would happen if the recall effort is successful.

[brandamber]

I don't just want him recalled, I want him jailed for what he's done to us!

Sadly I don't see Gavin as a good governor. If he's removed, so be it..

This boy's incompetence is criminal. Over $11 million of California's unemployment benefits were stolen by criminals.

Next on the to do list...recall Becerra; pressure CA GOP to file civil rights complaint with House Ethics Committee against Valadao; elect Devin Nunes as governor; and elect Harmeet Dhillon as AG.

Thank God! I’ve hated him since March, he made me wanna move to Florida when I finish school. And if he doesn’t reopen schools this fall, I’m gonna abandon the public school system and go to private school just so I can get a senior year

Recall Gavin now, He personally lockdown the restaurant with the no indoor or outdoor dining, yet, he approved a film company to set up a outdoor catering site with outdoor dining table, chairs and tents next to the Pineapple Hill Bar and Grill in Los Angeles, yet he lockdowns the Pineapple Hill outdoor tents, tables and chairs saying outdoor dining is illegal??? Hypocrite Gavin, play for pay the film industry execs then Gavin host a $850.00 per person illegal indoor dining at the upscaled French Laundry restaurant in Yountville, CA, when he got caught on camera, he said sorry. We just discovered the French Laundry restaurant received a $2.2 Million PPP from the Government, I wonder if Gavin paid his illegal indoor restaurant dinner bill??? Or did the French Laundry "comp" his dinner in lieu for the play for pay thank you for the $2.2 Million PPP. RECALL GAVIN NOW, HE IS A HYPOCRITE THINKING HE IS THE ELITE AND THE RULES DOES NOT APPLY TO HIM. 1/29/21 Gavin has reversed his lockdown, it is because he wants to legally go to French Laundry again, so they can "comp" his dinner again. Hey Gavin, we are not stupid, you are devious but we are determined to RECALL

We are moving back from Georgia so we can sign the petition for recall.
We now realize a huge mistake has been made and wish to fix the error of our ways.
